Sign of an old fogie #33 - Do you eat marmalade ?

[postman]

I have it on good authority that a certain bald headed starship captain always had a pot of Frank Coopers Oxford Marmalade with him on set in LA while shooting the show.

Who gave you that,Data.

 

[postman]

A forum full of old people declaring that they love marmalade. This is what the internet was invented for.

Oi you watch it,you can go off people you know.

Who gave you that,Data.

I don't believe it. I think it's a LaForgery.

Why is orange jam called marmalade ?

I'm sure I've had explained to me. Think it's something to do with Anne Boleyn.

 

[User482]

It's from the Portuguese for quince jelly (or similar).

TMN to me.

 

[tyred]

I love marmalade and always have done.

There is also a Gin, not sure where u can buy it from though.

Make your own?

Or (better still), make Seville orange gin ------ and make marmalade with the macerated peel? Now that sounds ........ rather better than interesting

I like marmalade on a thick slice of soft white bread.

Same here. I used to take marmalade sandwiches to school and later on in life to work and still do.

Marmalade is wonderful stuff, as a kid I could never understand why we only had it at breakfast, why not for tea as well, it obviously tastes much better than jam.

The stuff is so good, there is even a race horse named after it:

Marmalade is ace, especially this:

I also prefer fine cut. Thick cut is too rind-y

Toast and marmalade coming up

 

[growingvegetables]

Marmalade flavour, obviously.

Anything containing ingredients other than Seville oranges (and sugar, obviously) should be subject to some kind of EU regulation to designate it "marmalade-style toast topping".

Wot! No lemon marmalade? No ...... lime marmalade?
